As a year closes, about two weeks in IC (I kid), I have to give thanks to our community here and the good times we have spent together. No matter our circumstances and this message also goes to those who cannot actively participate on the forums during this time. I wish all of you a Christmas of peace, goodwill, and merriment. I hope you all are able to share these with your family and loved ones. I'd also like for you to consider looking at the true purpose of this holiday and that is the observation of a wonderful child being born in Bethlehem many, many years ago. Freya hopes for many presents tomorrow!  |

Happy Saturnalia. The purpose of Christmas is the Catholic church needing to create a false reasoning of something happening during the usual pagan festivities of worshipping the Roman god, Saturn, that happened in December.

On topic: merry Christmas, folks. |

The three kings gave gifts to Christ when he was born.
Romans gave each other gifts to show off their status for Saturnalia.
Coincidence?
I THINK NOT.

Happy Saturnalia. The purpose of Christmas is the Catholic church needing to create a false reasoning of something happening during the usual pagan festivities of worshipping the Roman god, Saturn, that happened in December. Actually Saturnalia ended two days ago. Also, the customary greeting is "Io, Saturnalia!" |
